uuu9 Data Breach

What happened

In September 2016, data was allegedly obtained from the Chinese website known as uuu9.com and contained 7.5M accounts. Whilst there is evidence that the data is legitimate, due to the difficulty of emphatically verifying the Chinese breach it has been flagged as "unverified". The data in the breach contains email addresses and user names. Read more about Chinese data breaches in Have I Been Pwned.

Exposed data

Recommended actions

• Change your uuu9 password immediately, and update it anywhere you reused the same password.
• Enable two-factor authentication on the affected account and on your critical services (email, banking).
• Watch for targeted phishing emails referencing uuu9 — attackers weaponise breach data quickly.
• Check whether your email address appears in this breach on haveibeenpwned.com.
